Surprise... but I'm seeing the same thing.

However, in my case, it was 2 processes sharing 100% - sflow being one and
the dns address resolution thread being the 2nd (address.c starting around
408).

Configuring a port for sflow didn't fix the 2nd - I'm still pegged at 100%
cpu usage...

Bad ntop, bad dog.  I guess that's #7 on my list of must fix for 2.1...

Subject: [Ntop] 02-04-03: problem with 100% CPU utilization (due to
sFlow)


Hi all,

I just noticed a problem with the snapshot of 02-04-03. When ntop is
started, ntop wants a load of 1 (100% CPU utilization). The problem is
related to the sFlow plugin, since the load drops to normal proportions
when the sFlow plugin is configured. When the incoming flow direction is
set to a port (6343), instead of port 0 on startup, the problems goes
away. Note that it doesn't matter if the plugin is active or inactive on
startup of ntop (I tried both, both same problem).

I observed this problem on several machines on which I installed ntop
(all 02-04-03 snapshot).

BTW: I start ntop with these parameters:

/usr/bin/ntop -a /var/log/ntop.access.log -c -d -i eth0 -u daemon -w
<IP>:<PORT> -D <DOMAIN> -E -L -P /var/lib/ntop -S 1

Does anyone else have this problem?
